Default Re: table in \"Little Green Book\".....................

From what I understand, Gordon doesn't even use ratios for pot odds. His blue book instructs you to do some strange and really fancy method of breaking stack sizes down into percentages, and figure on a percentage break even point bases and then... is it roughly ok to call this bet or not.

I suspect he is one of the only pros who hasn't switched over to the simple value-to-1 ratios yet. Now I understand that you COULD do things differently from the pact. You COULD use the imperial system instead of using metric in the modern day and age. But why make things a little harder when there is no need.

Anyhow, I'm not trying to degrade him, he seems to be a decent character but there are a few things by Gordon that raises my eyebrows. He is technicaly free to use any system he wants when he plays.
